Is your stash overflowing? Let me show you how to make your own Jelly Rolls from your stash and scraps. This will save you the expense and let you curate your own personal set of fabrics while using up what you already own.
A purchased jelly roll is usually a set of 2.5" strips of fabric and is usually a sampling of an entire line of fabric. These sets usually contain between 40 to 44 strips. There are so many wonderful jelly roll patterns out there! Some are even free.

This may be hard to believ for some but I actually can't by jelly rolls in the Philippines, quilting isn't a common hobby here, I'm so glad that I can make it at home with just some time and effort

@SewtheDistance 9 месяцев назад

Really? That is so interesting! And disappointing. I am thrilled this video can help you, however! Please let me know if you have any questions about the process. ❤️

@person2463 Год назад

Every time I buy yardage, I get extra, and cut four 2.5" strip's, building my own strip stash. So easy. Also cut four 10" squares. I am buying colours i like so know i like the fabric, and just over half yard extra. Or half metre in Australia. Worth it to build own precuts. Tfs,hugs, Chel 🌸

Beautiful idea! I love it! Thank you for sharing your system. ❤️

I am a brand new quilter, and I have this crazy idea- i want to make Log Cabin quilts for my children - all SIX of them- for Christmas.... I am studying different tutorials which have made this feat "seem" completely doable..... then I started calculating hay how many Jellyrolls I would need to make them- YIKES!!!! and then YOU popped up! Bless you bless you! This l making my own strips also means I can pitch my own fabric colors! I plan to record the process and will refer to you and THIS video with gratitude for making this project affordable. I won't post until after i have given them to our children, so don't hold your breath! Lol Momma Gayle Thank you thank you in advance!!!!

@SewtheDistance Год назад

Woohoo! Love this! So glad it is helpful! I also have a log cabin tutorial using jelly rolls if you want to check it out. Thank you for referencing me in your future tutorial! I will check out your channel, too!

@notesfromleisa-land Год назад

One of the best rulers for this type of job is the Creative Grids Stripology ruler. This ruler is an investment, but it is worth every penny. Stack and whack your fabrics with no loss in precision and save about 2/3rds of cutting time.

@SewtheDistance Год назад

I don’t have one yet. I’m a little concerned about how I’ll store it. Great idea for making your own jelly rolls! Thank you.

Jan. 4, 2024. Oh so pretty! But come on Kris, throw some non traditional blue in there! Oooohhh sparkley! So yesterday I went to one of our local stores that had a sale on clear plastic containers that were 8qt size. Just perfect for jelly rolls and other select cuts of scraps so I wouldn't have to use plastic bags. $0.99 each. Great. They were out of them. Someone bought 50 of them the day before. 😮😮😮😮I told the clerk at check out that at least I only bought two bags of on sale Christmas candy. Marion

@SewtheDistance 7 месяцев назад

Hi Marion! LOL! I love it! I am not a blue Christmas type of gal, but hey, you definitely could put blues into this. I hate when you have a plan and they are sold out. I hope they restock soon and gave you a rain check! Yay for avoiding the candy! I call that a win! 😄

I’ve been wanting to do jelly rolls and other precut bundles with my fabrics. I have about 7 large totes of fabrics that I need to go through.

@anitalapierre1585 Год назад

Recently I have started cutting down much of my fabric to make my own pre-cuts. Anything I bought for a project is going in a bag per project. The rest i am cutting 10x10, 9x9 (so I can get two from a fat quarter and accommodate stuff I wanted to make 10x10 out of but was short.) Also I am doing 5x5, 4.5x4.5 (because I found a huge stack in black I cut for a project and it had been waayy to many) 2.5x2.5, 2.5x5, 1.5x5 and 1.5x2.5. I am keeping them organized in large bags as I cut it all up. I seem to have mostly 5x5 and 2.5x2.5 so I am stacking them by color. Keeping them in sandwich bags.

@lostnwa98 Год назад

I have tried this, how do you avoid getting that litte "v" at the folds.. I just cant get a straight cut if my fabric is folded. Any tips ??

@SewtheDistance Год назад

Hi Shelley! Great question. This is an issue with a lot of people. The V usually happens when the fabric isn't folded correctly, usually when it comes off the bolt. The best way to make sure this doesn't happen is to open up the fabric completely, press it really well, and refold it correctly. I hope this helps!

@lostnwa98 Год назад

@Sew the Distance yes Kris, you're right, !!! Thank you ❤️

@yvonnejeanette1726 Год назад

Yes, you can! Any quilt shop should have them. Hope this helps!

@tracycook7355 11 месяцев назад

Hi what is the normal length of a jelly roll strip please

@SewtheDistance 11 месяцев назад

Great question! It is the width of the fabric, edge to edge or selvedge to selvedge. It ranges between 40” and 44” depending on the print, maker, and company. Hope this helps!

@sandrinou1329 Год назад

sorry but you don't show video how to roll the jelly roll... how can we do that ?

@SewtheDistance Год назад

Gosh, I don't know. I guess just fold the strips in half, stagger them, and roll it? I made them to use, so I didn't try rolling them. Great question, though! I can try to figure it out.

@sandrinou1329 Год назад

@@SewtheDistance ok no problem. It's because I would do it for me for storage in my boxes. Thank you :)

@momijiyamanishi4548 11 месяцев назад

On your jelly roll knockoff quilt I enjoyed your video. However, if I got Mis- printed fabric from jo-ann's, I would expect it to be free. They should not be selling something like that

@SewtheDistance 11 месяцев назад

True! Although I think it is what happens with the lower quality fabrics. Some people say it happens with higher quality, too, although I haven't experienced it. Hopefully this is a good example of what can happen and others will make sure it doesn't happen to them. Thank you so much for watching this video and the budget video! ❤️

@heidilecompte4198 Год назад

I hate pinked edges and will never buy any precuts that have them. I suppose if someone is making a project where precision isn’t important, the pinked edged precuts could be okay.

@SewtheDistance Год назад

I am not a fan of them either. Totally understand. ❤️

@judyvance1556 Год назад

Salvage ??!, Please stop pronouncing incorrectly.

@SewtheDistance Год назад

As someone with a master's degree in linguists, I recognize not all dialects and regions are the same; hence, pronunciations of many words are different depending on each individual's sound house. This is okay. This is expected. This is acceptable. This is one of many things that make us unique. Thank you for pointing out our wonderfully delightful differences! ❤️ Love to you. I hope you have a blessed day.
